There is news that Chen Anan is very likely to fail in the election because there are too many deputy-court seats in the Chen family in Magic City.
The news spread on the island very early, and the small disturbance in the outside world was far less important than the discussions among the consultants on the island, including the members of the Economic Research Island.
Moreover, the depth of the topics discussed on the island, including the comparison of the pros and cons of the voters, cannot be guessed from the news from the outside world.
It was only after Mu Qingqing arrived on the island that she truly understood the local atmosphere and the unique development model of Jingyan Island.
It can be said that this is a completely free paradise where you can say anything and curse anything.
As long as you think it makes sense.
Moreover, at least 80% of the people on the island are opposed to An An's election as the next dean.
Needless to say, An An's reputation in the outside world has been very good over the years, and no one has ever thought that there is any problem with her ability or character.
The problem is that Jingyan Island is too important. Its scale far exceeds that of any private enterprise in the country, and it can even be ranked among the top ten chaebols in the world.
Such an economic research center manages at least hundreds of listed companies.
Among them, there are seven or eight companies with a market value far exceeding one trillion yuan.
Half a month before the election, a large number of remarks suddenly emerged, saying that Chen Anan should not be allowed to succeed.
This statement also received support from the vast majority of people.
One thing is almost certain: the more cognitive a person is, the less likely he or she is to be influenced by the outside world, including public opinion.
Because their thoughts, including judgments, have already been formed.
The less capable a person is, the more easily they are influenced by public opinion, including in many aspects.
The main reason why An An’s situation has become like this is because the Chen family in Magic City is too powerful.
And there is also the founder Chen Pingsheng who weighs heavily on everyone's heads, although Chen Pingsheng has been in a state of inaction in his later years.
Once An An takes over, Jingyan Island will return to the family management model, which will instantly break the balance that Zhang Wanyi has worked so hard to create.
So she was determined to support Chu Qiuyan.
On the other hand, we also provide the same support to Tengfei AI.
For Zhang Wanyi, as long as Chen Anan is not the one taking over the position of dean, anyone else will do.
The development of the matter may have always been in Chen Pingsheng's mind, but he never expressed any opinion.
However, the Chen family, led by An An, showed extraordinary anger about this matter.
Especially Chen Xinyi, who had never suffered any injustice, she got angry right on the spot. An An was her biological sister and the person she trusted the most.
My elder sister has been working diligently and conscientiously over the years, and she rarely makes mistakes. Yet, when she was running for the dean's position, she was eliminated before she even started.
What does this mean?
Do the people on the island want to treat the Chen family as public enemies?
In Chen Xinyi's view, this was pure betrayal, and there were many members of the Chen family who shared her thoughts.
Even if An An didn't stand up and say anything, the emotions on both sides were like a ball of fire that could explode at any time.
There are also heated arguments on the intranet every day.
The Chen family's strength was fully demonstrated at this moment.
On the island, with Zhang Wanyi as the representative and countless members of the advisory group speaking out together, two opposing emotions quickly formed.
Even Mu Qingqing, who landed on the island, didn't expect that they would see such an explosive scene after arriving on the island.
The Chen family, led by Chen Xinyi and Su Xiaoxi, strongly supported Chen Anan to take the position of dean.
This position is so important that it can control dozens of domestic industries and the lifestyles of hundreds of millions of people at home and abroad.
"Are we here at the wrong time? Is this something we can report?"
"I'm worried that if I go back and write up the actual situation here, my boss won't dare let me send it out."
"You think too much."
The reporters were all hesitant. At this moment, Jingyan Island was at the peak of two opposing emotions.
The Chen family, represented by Chen Xinyi, believes that the position of dean is selected based on ability and responsibility, and not because her sister is excluded just because her Chen family is powerful.
Others, however, believe that such an important position as dean should not be controlled by one family.
Mu Qingqing said, "We were able to land on the island entirely because Mr. Chen opened up the island's access. This is why our press group was able to come here for this interview. As long as Mr. Chen doesn't say anything, I believe that no matter what we interview, we should be able to report it. The outside world also wants to see a more realistic Jingyan Island."
"That's right." A well-known reporter nodded in agreement.
"Given Mr. Chen's character, he hasn't expressed his opinion on this matter yet, so he won't defend his daughter."
"It's not called maintenance, it should be called fully respecting the collective opinion."
Regardless of their speculation, these reporters were all accommodated in the Jingyan Island Hotel.
There is only one small hotel on the island, built to seven-star standards, which includes a reception center, restaurant and entertainment facilities.
Because there are very few foreign tourists visiting the island, there is not much demand for hotel business on Jingyan Island.
By the time Mu Qingqing finished checking in and went to the hotel restaurant for dinner, several members of the advisory group were still gathered there.
They were all around sixty years old, with gray hair but very energetic. The topics they discussed were also related to this election.
Mu Qingqing stepped forward and introduced herself, "Hello, elders. I am Mu Qingqing, a financial reporter."
"Oh...you are the reporters who came to the island."
The old man on the left said, "Before you came, Dean Zhang gave us a brief introduction. She also asked us to cooperate with you as much as possible, because this is Elder Chen's intention. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I will answer everything I know, but this is only my personal opinion."
The latter sentence is actually very insightful. It is true that he is a member of the advisory group, but he absolutely cannot speak on behalf of the advisory group. All his answers only represent his own opinions.
Mu Qingqing was very excited. She didn't expect it to be so smooth. The members of the island's advisory group were all top talents in the world.
With their cooperation, this interview will definitely go very smoothly.
"Hello, I would like to ask what you think about the two opposing emotions on the island this time?" Mu Qingqing asked.
Zhang Laodao said, "I don't think much of it. It's just a normal thing. There's no need to escalate it into an internal struggle. Those of us who oppose An An also admire her and absolutely recognize her abilities. It's just that the Chen family is really not suitable for having another dean."
"So, you are against An An becoming the dean?"
"I'm not the only one who's against it. Most people on the island are against it. It's not that we're against An An's abilities, nor are we doubting her character or her thoughts. We just think the Chen family is really powerful now. Isn't having a recognized founder of Economic Research Island enough?"
Zhang Laodao said, "Do you know why so many people here come to Economic Research Island? It's because the founder of the Chen family has ideas far beyond those of ordinary entrepreneurs, even far ahead of their time. What you think of as internal strife happens all the time on Economic Research Island. Everyone is just expressing their own opinions and doing what they think is right. There's no opposition or desire to suppress the Chen family. They just think that Economic Research Island should further break free from family control."
